SCORPIO NEW MOON

With this month's new moon falling in magnetic, deeply emotional, spiritually-gifted Scorpio, we'll feel even more connected to our intuition and potentially willing to go swimming in powerful, complex feelings. As we step into the penultimate month of the year, the energy of the fixed water sign will reach a fever pitch. Calling on you to get in touch with the shadow side of life in order to acknowledge and celebrate your inner truth, the Scorpio New Moon occurs on November 1st. 

The New Moon in transformative and intense Scorpio is exactly that – intense. The Moon is not at her very best in this most sensitive of signs, with her tendency to be defensive to cover up her deep vulnerability. Scorpio lunations have a tendency to bring us all face to face with our innermost shadows, giving us the opportunity to evolve and grow. 

We all have a choice about which of the vibrations we choose to align with. We might crawl in these shadows, fearful of our own darkness, or we might take a light—the light of consciousness—and gleefully peer into Pandora’s box to see what we might learn.

Mars, as the traditional ruler of Scorpio, lies in sensitive Cancer, where he, too, is debilitated and held back from his fullest Warrior expression. Here, Mars may act out as the cosmic crybaby. It’s important to remember that just because we feel a thing doesn’t mean it’s a fact. That also doesn’t mean our feelings are invalid. It’s simply a cosmic reminder that our internal world often reflects our outer  realities.

With Mars’s opposition to Pluto there’s much that will be dug up over the coming months. Much that relates to family skeletons, old resentments, buried emotions, and trauma. We have the choice, as we always do, to draw on these experiences and allow them to transform us, or to wait for an external situation, person, or relationship to trigger the process. Let’s face it: it’s always better to be the one in the driver’s seat.

Though, with that said, being in control is Scorpio's worst nemesis. As much as this sign craves complete dominance, it also yearns for sweet surrender to the unknown. So, in a way, over this New Moon and the several months to follow, might we hold this tender dilemma with gentle care? In what way in which can we deal with the murkiness that is bound to arise, keeping in mind that even the glistening lotus has her roots in the mud?

There’s hope. Mars trines Neptune, and with these three planets—Mars, Pluto, and Neptune—all at the twenty-ninth degree of their respective signs, there’s business to be closed. Endings of old, resentful cycles. Forgiveness is showing her face. Help is at hand. When we tune into our deeper desires, our deepest yearnings, we’ll find that what awaits is love, love, and the desire to be as close as we can be with whatever we deem most divine in our world. This may be our partnerships, our family, or our friends. Scorpio does nothing unless it’s deep and meaningful. So - what is it that is deep, meaningful, and worth sacrificing for? How vast is our love, our desire and our commitment to evolution?

ARIES ♈

This deep and mysterious lunation brings an opportunity for you to get vulnerable and explore your mystical side. Instead of trying to immediately take action on your first instinct, allow your new moon feelings to simmer and soak — and try to listen to your intuition when it comes to sorting out next steps.

The New Moon in Scorpio marks a time to take care of your finances. The 8th house often deals with debt, taxes, and other people's money in general. If clearing out debt is not a focus up to this point, the Universe seems to be asking you to be alert with how much you are spending. It's time to make budget cuts and get organised. If owing money is not a significant concern at the moment, this could also point to favours that need to be retributed. It's also important to note that this transit also goes both ways.

TAURUS ♉

The coming New Moon will give you the opportunity to work in tandem with someone who is at your side in collaboration, business, or love. Be prepared for some intense conversations with your spouse, partner, or close connections, but be careful not to respond impassionedly to others. Be careful with being too stubborn and give in to change. If you give in and make quick decisions, the rewards will be better than you can imagine. 

If you are single, this transit also calls for a leap of faith. If you’re in a relationship, you could also feel pressure on the job, as you’re being tasked with working extra hard and taking on responsibility — something your partner may not be happy with.

This new moon is highlighting the routine-oriented matters of your life, Gemini, and it’s asking you to stop droning through these actions like a zombie. Everything we do has a ripple effect in our lives — even the most mundane and commonplace acts. So whether it’s related to your work, health habits, or daily rituals, make a conscious choice to connect with every moment of your day.

While new moon energies generally favour solitude, you might find that you’re inspired to get out and connect with your local scene, Virgo.

LIBRA ♎

This new cycle urges you to make decisions on what you have to let go of. You can catch the wind if you hold out a container big enough. Check it to make sure there are no holes or cracks. Once you catch the mover of clouds and blanket of the sky, what will you do with it? This New Moon is a gentle reminder that motivation is a nonphysical idea. You can try to catch it, but you might find your will to create movement is more effective. Thus it is time for the release of old attachments, especially regarding other people. This lunation urges you to find your sense of independence as nothing in this world is permanent.
